The stock market always goes up, over many years. I have a question about that.

If you look at any of the major stock markets - FTSE 100, FTSE 250, NASDAQ, Dow Jones etc. - they always go up over a period of many years. There are some years it goes down, for example the financial crash between 2007 and 2009. But if you take a long enough time frame, it always goes up.

Therefore, as a strategy, why don't you just invest equally among all the companies on that stock exchange? After 30 years, take out your money. You should have made a lot of profit over that time.

Is it really that simple? If I'm misunderstanding anything, please say. I would appreciate any expert opinions here. Thanks. :)
